Summary: This paper proposes a fixed-time leader-follower consensus tracking control scheme for uncertain multiagent systems with unknown dead-zone output. First, a novel approximate dead-zone model was introduced to accurately represent the dead-zone phenomenon in the output channel of nonlinear multiagent systems. Furthermore, the model presented is a smooth function, which greatly simplifies the process of fusing it with the backstepping technique. Second, we present a Nussbaum function to compensate for the uncertain gain from the output dead-zone nonlinearity. Third, unlike previous works, we first consider practical fixed-time consensus issues for multiagent systems with output dead-zone. Finally, according to the fixed-time control theory, the tracking error of the multiagent systems converges to the region around zero within a fixed time, which is confirmed by the simulations.
